Adios Guatemala

It took 6 hours there are back but today I went to Guate, picked up my passport, got it stamped by immigration and am now all set to board my flight tomorrow. My hostel helped me hire a driver for the day for less than it cost to taxi or even shuttle bus. It was very nice having a driver for the day, even if it sounds a lot posher than it actually was. There was a lot of waiting involved, including a little nap in the lobby of the immigration building when the necessary staff member was discovered to be out for a two hour lunch break.

Anyway, I´m back in Antigua for my last night. I did a little shopping now that I know that I have enough money to last me. Í´m about to go for my very last dinner here too, how sad. I´m going to miss Guatemala, a lot, but I´m very ready to see friends and family again too. My shuttle to the airport is at 7:30 tomorrow morning, and I arrive in vancouver at 11:00 at night. I can´t wait to see you all!

(I´ll probably post a couple more blog entries after this. Mainly about Costa Rica. I don´t think I ever posted about my last day there. I also didn´t have a lot of free time in Costa Rica so couldn´t blog as much as I wanted. Now that I´ve written this blog, I realize it´s also a great way to remember my own trip in the future, as well as keeping in touch with friends now. So I´m going to fill in a few blanks from the trip and then... that´s that.)
